From Tour to Service
Following the Lutheran Women in Mission Convention in Omaha, several women and one man signed up to take a bus from Omaha to Norfolk to tour the new Orphan Grain Train Servant Center. Following the tour, they were served lunch along with Norfolk’s volunteers and staff. They viewed a new OGT movie and had a Q&A session with Pastor Wilke. They then moved into the volunteer mode and packed blankets. We are so grateful you chose to take the trip to Norfolk and spend time with us here! What a blessing you were to us.
